GameBlast's Reviews

7 / 10.0 - Astronite
Nov 30, 2022

Astronite has several small flaws that don't spoil it, but rather detract from the experience of what the game could offer. It's not a good gateway to the genre, but it might please enough for those who are already used to it and want one more retro adventure to explore in a weekend. In the end, this is the kind of game with some good hits and tolerable flaws, showing potential for improvement in a future sequel or new title from the developer.

The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me keeps the franchise level with a horror narrative experience that manages to offer good doses of tension and an interesting plot. In terms of gameplay, the game is a small but significant evolution of the formula, but some problems in the narrative and character modeling are bottlenecks that the team still needs to work on.

7.5 / 10.0 - Bravery and Greed
Nov 29, 2022

Bravery and Greed is a great option for fun and addictive gameplay with friends in an engaging roguelite experience, despite not innovating within the genre. The desire to play a new game is always great after filling the pockets with each new attempt to get filthy rich.

10 / 10.0 - Slow Damage
Nov 29, 2022

Slow Damage is a BL visual novel with story and ambientation among the best options in its genre. With a solid English translation full of personality, stylish illustrations and mature soundtrack, the title manages to portray really hard topics in a serious and well-realized way. It's a game easily recommended to any player who enjoys a good story and can handle the topics presented there without any difficulties.

Nov 28, 2022

Starring one of the most charismatic heroes of Casa das Ideias, Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales is another excellent game from Sony to successfully migrate to the PC. Don't let yourself be fooled: although it has a smaller scope than its predecessor and innovates little in terms of gameplay, quality is not lacking in this cinematic adventure. In addition, its competent adaptation for personal computers is a more than perfect appetizer for the sequel that is approaching next year.

7.5 / 10.0 - The Knight Witch
Nov 28, 2022

The Knight Witch is a fast and enjoyable shoot 'em up. Its greatest asset is the agile combat that uses shots, spells and a dash of bullet hell to create varied and electrifying clashes. Difficulty is intense and fair most of the time, and being able to switch between auto and manual aiming at any time brings flexibility to the action. In addition to the battles, there is a vibrant world full of situations to be explored. The game has metroidvania features, but they are quite shy: revisiting areas is costly and progression is mostly linear. Other than that, the universe delights with its elaborate beauty, but the story does not excite and some mechanics are underdeveloped. In the end, The Knight Witch is a fun, fast-paced shoot 'em up experience.

8 / 10.0 - Marvel Snap
Nov 26, 2022

With accessible gameplay and addictive mechanics, Marvel Snap is one of those free-to-play gems on smartphones and PCs. Other qualities of this great card game include the beautiful visuals and effects, all creatively inspired by the Marvel comics universe. It's a shame that we only have one way to enjoy the games, but there's nothing to fear: with a very solid foundation, the future is promising and the sky is the limit for this great game.

Nov 25, 2022

Tad the Lost Explorer comes with good intentions and [it's] based on a fun animation, but its technical issues turn it into a very weak title among other options inspired by cartoons and movies. It isn't horrendous, but think twice before starting this exploration that's as clumsy as its protagonist.

9 / 10.0 - Flat Eye
Nov 24, 2022

Flat Eye is a simulator whose greatest strength lies in its serious social discussion, quite current and not at all subtle. This element permeates both gameplay and narrative efficiently, creating an experience that is worth more than the sum of its small parts.

9 / 10.0 - Pentiment
Nov 23, 2022

Despite bringing a limited, sometimes repetitive, and somewhat simple gameplay experience in RPG elements, Pentiment is one of the best examples of historical fiction that the video game media has ever produced. Its narrative has an engaging mystery, a historically rich context with several good points for reflection on the passage from the medieval to the modern era, a coherent and immersive audiovisual and, above all, a unique text design that makes every word say much more than its mere meaning.

6 / 10.0 - Gungrave G.O.R.E
Nov 23, 2022

For a game in its niche, Gungrave G.O.R.E is all it really promises. The problem is not getting out of that comfort zone. The fact that I'm part of the niche (and I particularly liked the result), doesn't mean that everyone should do it.

7 / 10.0 - McPixel 3
Nov 22, 2022

McPixel 3 is a great choice for those looking for something more casual and light for their gaming moments. With a predominant and often exaggerated humor, this indie title has a unique and unpretentious vibe that yields good laughs and a little work for those who want to complete it. You can play while eating popcorn, but be careful not to get butter on your controller.

7.5 / 10.0 - Ship Of Fools
Nov 22, 2022

Ship of Fools turns a sea journey into a great roguelike. Trying to survive the attacks of monsters while sailing is a complicated task, as we are always at a disadvantage and we have to run to move cannons, shoot and attack creatures with a paddle — the action is frenetic and part of the fun is being able to handle so much chaos. Co-op multiplayer for two sailors is the focus, but tackling the seas alone is also a great option. The matches have many items and events that invite us to experiment and think strategically. However, the limited variety of content and slow progression of unlocks is a bit of a nuisance. Luckily, the action is fast and the universe is charismatic, which alleviates these problems. In the end, Ship of Fools is a great adventure through the dark oceans, whether alone or in the company of a friend.

8 / 10.0 - WRC Generations
Nov 21, 2022

If WRC 10 were compared to a party, WRC Generations would be that box with snacks and cake that you keep on eating in the following days: it's still tasty but more of the same. The game modes are exactly the same, with way simpler menus. Even with the excellent experience of driving a (now hybrid) rally car, the edition's biggest flaw is not trying to even shake its basic structure a little bit.

7 / 10.0 - Lunistice
Nov 16, 2022

Lunistice is a captivating work that stands out for its eye-catching and colorful graphics and its simple, dynamic gameplay. Though some stages have confusing designs, the adventure as a whole is really satisfying and fun. Even if not brilliant, Lunistice is a great option for nostalgic fans of the 32-bit era and speedrunners.

8 / 10.0 - NSG
Nov 14, 2022

NSG is a Brazilian visual novel that manages to offer a sensible and mature plot with extremely relevant topics. Though some subplots lack a little development, the title is impactful and thoughtful of its social discussion.

9 / 10.0 - Immortality
Nov 13, 2022

Immortality brings with its ambitious, mature and daring production a critical and unique narrative experience, and manages to bring art cinema closer to video games like no other interactive film until then. The title is a must-have for any movie lover who is interested in the potential for the intersection of this medium with video games, as well as mystery adventure fans open to dealing with the irreverent eroticism and conceptualism of this work.

7.5 / 10.0 - The Chant
Nov 12, 2022

The Chant is another one of those games that don't reinvent, but entertain. Its plot brings something different from what we have seen in the horror genre lately. There's no such thing as haunted mansions, teenagers being idiots, or grandiose enemies here. The focus of the production is to bring a different story accompanied by some supernatural elements. Because it was being sold as a horror game, I found it weak in this aspect. I recommend it for those who don't like blood, violence or being scared. It is somewhat friendly to those who are no longer familiar with the horror genre.

Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration, manages to transcend the aura of a mere compilation, becoming a great "playable documentary". It is a historical test, recommended for everyone who wants to know what the world of games was like in the distant past.

Tactics Ogre Reborn brings back a classic strategic RPG in style. It is an essential game for any player, although some specific choices of the new edition make it difficult for newcomers to enter the genre. Even so, Tactics Ogre continues to show not only the competence of its creators, but the great possibility of games in general as art and reflection.
